Trendy and warm: my Parka jacket !

Some of you will surely remember my green Christmas wishlist. Well, I am happy because I succeeded in having a few green items I really wanted, especially the trendiest winter coat of the moment: a Parka jacket !. I've been obsessing over getting a warm Parka, an iconic jacket that would be stylish and comfortable at the same time, and finally I found it. What do you think about it ?. This jacket is from a brand called Campo V and their Parka is called Sherpa 1953, it's been inspired by the great accomplishment happened on May 29th, 1953, when Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay reached the summit of Mount Everest, 29.028 feet above sea level, the highest spot on earth !.

Another new entry in green is the bag you see, a green leather Prada duffle, a very special present I got that I love so much !. You can see it better in the pic below.
I matched the bag with brown Arfango ankle boots that have been waiting in my shoe closet for a long time.
This time I opted for a casual look, but I've seen the trend is wearing the Parka also with more elegant outfits, I am gonna try this for sure !.

The sweater I am wearing underneath my Parka is from Northland and has loads of colors, as well as being pretty warm.
The Missoni scarf is quite an old purchase. Since I have my walk in closet I find things much more easily and I am so pleased with that !.

When the air got more fresh, I was ready to wear a burgundy beanie. I have to confess I always have a beanie inside my bag when it's winter. I like to feel warm and also to get ready when the weather is humid !.
This bonnet is from Scotch and Soda, same brand as Maison Scotch and I have decided to buy it for myself even tho I found it under the male side, cause beanie hats are just a unisex item !.
Dressed this way I feel ready to live an adventure, not on Mount Everest but in a few shops, for sales hunting ! I think it requires strenght and courage, anyway, don't you ? :-P.
